What's the weather like where you live?

[GarySL]

Despite the smoke inland, it's decent on the coast

[moooza]

Bloody freezing, and raining, gloomy.

[Esteban]

High today is 101°F. Down to high 80s on Sunday, then back to the 100s by the following Saturday.

Made it home before the deluge. I rode my MTB to work today.

What is this "water falling out of the sky" that you speak of?

We go bone dry for the months of July, August and September, which is the reason that this Willamette Valley area of Oregon produces a large amount of grass seed for all purposes (homeowners, builders, golf courses). The tradeoff is the fire risk, although right now the temperatures are not hot. But introduce hot temperatures and windy conditions into the picture and the anxiety level goes way up.

Speaking of wildfires... Jasper, Alberta got hit quite bad. They're calling for 1/3 to a half of the buildings destroyed. Population of only about 5000, mostly a tourist town. A lot of hotels and resorts are leveled.

Fire smoke season is in full swing but it's keeping north for now.

Almost nippy for the morning ride...

[M_Six]

Ugh. I've been dreading this. A return to typical central IL mugginess.

[Esteban]

85°F right now, high is forecasted to be 92. Not too bad today. We've seen worse.

Inland fires are getting bad, smoke lingers morning and night

Those wildfires are a sad thing. Hope your home's not threatened, G.

[Lady Jane]

A gorgeous day. Spent most of it outside weeding and deadheading the flower beds.

Thanks E, we're safely on the coast, tending our flowers (LJ, speaking of which)

Terrible wildfires in Oregon, too, but nowhere close to us. And the smoke is all blowing into Idaho, Montana, etc.

Glad they're not close to you. We had one close to us several years ago and the sky was black with smoke and there was ash everywhere, including on the cars and roads. Now there's a big one in Alberta. It's wildfire season and it's frightening and can be devastating for anybody near them.

[Lady Jane]

High humidex today.

[vreihen16]

It's currently an otherwise-bearable 69F here, except for the stifling 96% humidity.....

[Esteban]

Not too bad today. Currently 87°F and sunny. High predicted to be 91. Will be 74/71 for my walk tonight, which should be very comfortable. Several days in the triple digits are coming.

[Esteban]

The heat is on.

[dradernh]

It's indoor swimming pool weather here. Not so hot, really, just really muggy.

[Lady Jane]

Not sure if I was running or swimming this morning.
